Hello. My teeth need completely sorting out. I am 23 and have two root canals that need doing, I think they both have an abscess on the as well. Also, my mouth is filled with metal fillings and I would love to just have white fillings. I think there is a lot of work that needs doing. They look nice when I smile but they are ruined. Do you know how much it is likely to cost, would I be able to get the work done and pay back monthly?
If you could let me know any information that would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Hi Dr Patel. I am a 29 year old mum of 4 and when I fell pregnant with my son my teeth just started to rot and some even fell out. I have lost all confidence and avoid social gatherings as I have discoloured teeth along with some missing. My husband complains that I never smile. I would love to surprise him with a new smile but I will be completely straight with you I have £1000 and need a complete smile makeover. Do you know how I can get help with this? Can you make me smile again?
I would be more than grateful.
Thank you for reading. Kind regards.

Hello Dr Patel. I wondered if I could get a smile makeover done for free or with a big discount, I have MS and have found due to my swallowing problems and dry mouth it has affected my gums and teeth badly. I am to embarrassed to have a check up done and have realised that my gums are disappearing from my front teeth badly.
Please can you help me or find some help for me as I feel very depressed and stressed about my problem and that is also affecting my illness.

Thank you and I hope you will be able to advise me on what I should do?

Hello Dr Hughes. I have a false tooth with a screw that just came out, but I pushed it back in myself. Is there any form of dental glue I can use to ensure it doesn’t come out again? I don’t want to go to a dentist. I need a solution so I can do it myself. I am retired and no longer have dental insurance. My tooth is in the front of my mouth and would be very embarrassing if it came out. I would not be able to smile or feel comfortable. Thank you for your time.

Hi Dr Moore. I have had my 4 front upper teeth missing for a number of years now. I had bad teeth ever since I was a child and my 2 back teeth each side on lower(wisdom) are also missing. What options have I got as I don’t know which denture treatment I need and the costs as I’m self employed? They get me down and I need to do something about them as I want to get married in the next year and want to be able to smile. My teeth are bad and I feel ashamed to go to local dentist. Thanks.

I have a slight overbite and would like to get this fixed. I have looked around how to get this done when I bumped into your website.

My question is: how much this will cost and if there is any possibility to get this covered by any insurance?

I noticed this problem when I started to get older but didn’t know if there was a procedure to get this fixed, but since I am an student who is not employed this is going to be difficult to fund on my own.

This procedure would give me self-esteem since as I am very conscious about my overbite problem.

Hello Dr Patel. Thank you for your interesting website and all the information offered. I am a full-time student and would like my teeth straightened. I have slight overcrowding in upper and lower arch. I am interested in having ceramic braces fitted. Can you recommend anyone who offers discount for students? Are there any other treatment options which might be useful to me? Thank you for your time. Kind regards.

Hello Dr. Riten.
I have a big problem with my teeth. I saw in your website that you can do same day implants, which is really good.
My problem is that my credit history isn’t really good. Would it be possible to pay monthly without searching my credit history? Having a nice full set of teeth is my dream. I have a full time job, and my monthly salary is good and as full my teeth are important for me I can afford to pay each month. Thank you for your time and answering a question.

I have been quoted a total treatment cost of £6,500 to get Damon braces for my lower teeth and lingual braces for my upper teeth to address moderate to severe crowding on the upper and lower arch, with reduced posterior diameter on the upper arch and an over developed lower jaw.

As it’s difficult to get comparison prices I was wondering if this seems reasonable for London. The orthodontist thinks that I will need 10 -14 months.

Hi Dr Hughes, I have waited almost 2 years to get dentures made, after four top sets being made they still look disgusting and really bad. I was sent to a dental school at my local hospital and I am getting another top set made, but it already looks like the teeth are too large and the plate is the thickest I’ve ever seen. Do you know of anyone that will help me just get teeth that make me want to smile again? I would get implants if they were available for me, but unfortunately I am out of work. I have heard of soft dentures that look real and would settle for them. Thanks.
